The character, Nathaniel Richards, a 31st-century scholar and descendant of Reed Richards's time-traveling father, embarks on a complex journey involving time travel, ancient Egypt, and encounters with iconic Marvel characters.
The character, now famously recognized as Kang, made his debut in "Fantastic Four" #19 (October 1963) courtesy of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Initially introduced as the pharaoh Rama-Tut, a temporal criminal from the year 3000 conquering ancient Egypt, Kang's enigmatic origins hinted at a potential link to the infamous Doctor Doom.
Returning in "Fantastic Four Annual" #2 (September 1964) and later adopting the identity Kang in "The Avengers" #8 (published the same month), the narrative clarified that Rama-Tut was indeed a younger version of Kang, setting the stage for a complex storyline.
A pivotal revelation occurred in "Fantastic Four" #273 (December 1984), challenging the belief that Kang descended from Doctor Doom. Instead, it hinted at a lineage tracing back to Reed Richards' father, Nathaniel, through one of Reed's many half-siblings. This detail gained further traction in "What If…?" Vol. 2 #39 (July 1992), where Kang's birth name was disclosed as "Nathaniel Richards," subsequently integrated into Marvel Universe continuity.
The ambiguity around Kang's ancestry persisted in later publications like "Avengers Forever" #9 (August 1999) and "Doctor Doom" #6 (March 2020), presenting conflicting perspectives. The question of Kang's descent, whether from Doctor Doom, Nathaniel Richards, both, or neither, remained an intriguing puzzle. Notably, Kristoff Vernard, Doom's adoptive son and a half-sibling of Reed, added a potential familial link.
In 2021, Kang took the spotlight in a miniseries, peeling back the layers of his character and delving into Marvel's intricate time-twisting narrative. As readers explore Kang's origins, he stands as a captivating and ever-evolving enigma within the Marvel Universe.
As the series unfolds, fans are left speculating whether Sartorius will depict the infamous Kang the Conqueror or Nathaniel Richards before his transformation.
